WHAT CHEER? BRIGADE
SATURDAY JULY 21
NARRAGANSETT BACKYARD LOUNGE | 10:30PM
Brooklyn isn't the only place with a raucous modern marching band. Providence's own What Cheer Brigade storms the streets with their slapdash sound of Renaissance City ruckus. Their name comes from the ancient English greeting the Narragansett Tribe supposedly gave Roger Williams, and though they don't need many wires to perform, the impression they make is anything but old-fashioned. From College Hill to Olneyville, this group combines the sounds of the streets of Providence to create something uniquely reflective of the city and rip-roaringly entertaining.
